Broken Drum Records is proud to present, from his backyard studio in Beirut, our Uncle Riotous. Local legend has it that he was introduced to the power of dub by a van load of Jamaicans who had become slightly lost on their way to Ethiopia in the mid 70s. In the spirit of Lee "Scratch" Perry, King Tubby and John The Baptist, Uncle Riotous is a modern voice in the wilderness, crying "prepare the way of The Lord!"
Hey, Uncle Riotous.....how's it going there in Downtown Beirut? Uncle Jamaal was asking after you. His goat has almost recovered from the incident with the Breville Toaster. Catch you later, UR!
thank you for becoming our riotous uncle!
good stuff here and nice to hear one of the most powerful samples in history at the beginning of "wisdom".
best wishes from across the universe.

This collection is an around-the-world experience that starts in a quasi-spiritual dream state, before taking a quick dip in the Mediterranean ocean, dancing the Tango, and jetting off to a party in the Balkans. It then staggers into an exclusive joint in Istanbul and dances to the hottest international club tunes until the break of dawn.
